Rhea AI XCUR FY2025

External financing is substituting for internally generated cash as Exicure operates with a shrinking commercial base and minimal reinvestment.

Revenue contracted sharply from $28.8M in FY2022 to a fraction of that in FY2024, while the company still recorded a $12.2M operating loss. This combination indicates that operating costs have not reset to the business’s current commercial scale, rather than financing costs being the primary drag.

Cash conversion was less negative than the accounting result in FY2024: operating cash flow was -$2.91M versus net income of -$9.70M, suggesting noncash or working-capital effects softened the cash impact. A $13.4M financing inflow was several times the operating cash shortfall, while free cash flow matched operating cash flow because capital expenditures were negligible.

The balance sheet became less equity-buffered: liabilities stayed near $8.3M across FY2022 and FY2024, while equity fell to $6.77M. Debt-to-equity rose from 0.6x to 1.2x, indicating diminished capitalization cushion without a comparable increase in reported liabilities.

Financial Health Signals

Financial health score not available

Exicure, Inc. does not currently provide enough eligible data for a peer-relative financial health score, so none is published. The signals and metrics below are current.

Altman Z-Score Distress
-20.75

Exicure, Inc. scores -20.75, below the 1.81 distress threshold. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($9.2M) relative to total liabilities ($10.1M). This indicates elevated financial distress risk and warrants close attention to liquidity and debt levels.

Distress-screening estimate for non-financial companies. Not computed for banks or insurers, where the Altman model does not apply.

Piotroski F-Score Partial
1/7

Exicure, Inc. passes 1 of 7 computable financial strength tests (2 of the nine could not be computed from available data). 1 of 4 profitability signals pass, no leverage/liquidity signals pass (rising debt, declining liquidity, or share dilution), neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality No Cash Backing
N/A

Exicure, Inc. reported a net loss of $4.9M while operations used $8.6M of cash. With neither figure positive, the ratio between the two carries no quality signal.

Interest Coverage At Risk
N/A

Exicure, Inc. reported an operating loss of $4.2M against $1K in interest expense. There is no operating profit to cover interest, so interest must be met from cash reserves or from financing rather than from operations.
